polenta with marscarpone cheese
(1 rating)
We ate polenta as kids and didn't know it was polenta. Our mom's called it cornmeal mush. Give it a fancy name and it becomes something special. I like many different variations of polenta, but my most favorite is with the marscarpone cheese. I serve it with my Oven Braised Short Ribs.
